Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: We describe an association of two SNPs, rs3212345:C>T and rs3212346:G>A, located approximately 2.5 kb upstream of the melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) translation initiation codon, with pigmentation phenotype variation in a Southeast Brazilian miscegenated population. METHODS: One hundred thirty-eight genetically unrelated subjects, with multicolor phenotype, were selected from the southeast region of...
